Histoire

Anecdotes
Marilyn Monroe, who had seen and loved Kim Stanley's performance in the Broadway production of "Bus Stop", patterned her accent on Stanley's, as well as those accents she had heard during her own time in the South. Monroe worked diligently on the hillbilly twang, speaking quite differently than in her other movies, and subverted her natural singing talent to make it painfully clear that Chérie was not gifted in that department.

Gaffes
Although several sequences were indeed filmed in Phoenix, Arizona, involving a 1956 rodeo and rodeo parade, non-rodeo scenes supposedly depicting downtown Phoenix and Cherie's boardinghouse were clearly shot elsewhere; no major thoroughfare in Phoenix has hilly terrain or Victorian-style buildings seen in film.

Cherie: I hate you and I despise you! Now give me back my tail!

Why Marilyn is Unforgettable

The movie itself is mildly OK. However, this movie shows why MM has been so unforgettable to the American public almost 40 years after her death.

Check out two scenes. First, the justifiably famous rendition of "That Old Black Magic" number. Whether acting or if it's the real Marilyn Monroe, she conveys loneliness in front of a packed saloon; the feeling of recognition and appreciation when the Don Murray (Bo)character berates the patrons to show respect to her while she sings; and the out-and-out sexiness of her when she is lit up in red flames. Wow!!

The second scene is near the end when, standing out in the cold, Bo offers her his coat. The look on her face when she realizes that someone, maybe for the first time, is there to look after her and take care of her is absolutely moving. Again we can see the real Marilyn in the character. She so desperately looked for love and acceptance all through her life.

This is not a great movie. It is a great showcase for one of the most

remarkable personalities in movie history.
